Public bug reported: I've updated my XPS M1330 to Intrepid, and now the system crashes on boot. This happens immediately after "Loading Hardware Drivers" in the boot process. The screen stays in text mode, but all the text characters become garbled and flickery and booting stops. Holding the power button is the only way to shut down.
The machine has Intel graphics and 3965 wireless. This has happened with all of the 2.6.27-n kernels I've tried. Selecting the 2.6.24 kernel left over from Hardy boots successfully. I accept that this is a bit of a lame bug report; I'd really appreciate hints as to how to be more informative. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: 2.6.27 crash intrepid kernel ** Summary changed: - Crash at boot time with 2.6.27 kernel on XPS M1330 + [Intrepid] Crash at boot time with 2.6.27 kernel on XPS M1330 ** Tags added: 2.6.27 crash intrepid kernel -- [Intrepid] Crash at boot time with 2.6.27 kernel on XPS M1330 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/279584 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
